Hey got several observations with this Super PI app that some people like to use as a benchmark. I just ran a couple of Super PI 1M and 2M test on a Dell D620 laptop with a T2500 (2.0ghz) CPU and 2gigs of RAM, a VMWare Computer with single proccessor and 256mb of RAM hosted on the same Laptop, a custom built PC with an Athlon x64 3700+ OCed to 2.86ghz and a gig of RAM.
First test I ran was the D620 laptop, both CPU were enabled on the task manager for SuperPI, 1M test ran 30 seconds, 2M test ran at 1m 12 seconds. Then I turned off 1 CPU ran the test again, 1M test ran 31 seconds, and the 2M test ran at 1m 14 seconds.
2nd test I ran on the VMWare that has a Single Proccessor configuration, 1M test ran 32 seconds, and 2M test ran at 1m 14 seconds.
3rd test I ran on my AMD x64 3700+, 1M test gave a low 30 seconds, and 2M test gave me 1m 11 seconds.
Now technically, the Dual Core laptop should be the fastest *I think*, followed by the 3700+, and then the Single Core laptop and last the VMWare... But it seems like they're almost all the same, even the Single Proccessor laptop test is almost as fast the faster 3700+ is this a goof? Or SuperPI just doesn't support Dual Core..
What do you guys think?
